The breakout star of the Guardians of the Galaxy blasts off in his own in-continuity solo book this week.

 

Skottie Young writes and draws the adventures of Rocket Raccoon as the past enemies and lovers come back to haunt him.

 

“I like that he’s got a little of that Deadpool funk to him. We’ve got a raccoon with a big gun. I think we want to make sure he shoots it some.” Young told Marvel.com.

 

“I figure that a guy like Rocket, with his attitude, has swindled his way over many planets and charmed many ladies,” Young said of Rocket’s past.

 

“He’s racked up a militia of ex-girlfriends I’m dubbing the Exterminators. They’re all fed up and they’ve decided it’s time they dish out some payback on his furry little tail.”

 

Rocket and Groot are perhaps the closest members of the team and Young says devoted tree alien will appear in the series.
